A NEW building is to be constructed at the site of the council headquarters near Wallingford devastated in an arson attack.
South Oxfordshire District Council announced yesterday it intends to move back to a new building at its former base in Benson Lane, Crowmarsh Gifford.
Council staff have been in temporary accommodation along with staff from Vale of White Horse District Council, after the blaze in January 2015 destroyed the offices the two councils shared.
They relocatedto Milton Park, Didcot, six months after the fire, where they have been ever since.
The move will take place in 2020.
